If you’re looking for easy DIY Easter Crafts to keep your kids busy, I’ve rounded up 22 of the most fun for this Spring Season!

My girls love any type of crafts, but especially Holiday themed crafts. Since Easter is just a few weeks away, I thought it was a great time to share with you a few of the fun, easy DIY Easter Crafts that I found while browsing Pinterest. If you make any of them, I would love for you to tag me on social media when you share!

With Thanksgiving just a day away, I’m reminded that Christmas is following very closely behind as are a lot of you, I’m sure! The upcoming busiest Shopping Day of the Year has my mind running with gift ideas for all the special people in my family’s life.

So often we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of buying gifts that we don’t stop to think about how a DIY gift or small handwritten note can impact the gifts we give. So I hope that this post reminds you to put that personal touch on the gifts you give this Holiday Season!

Since I became a Jamberry Consultant just a few months ago, you can bet that I’ll be giving some special ladies the gift of fabulous nail wraps, including my daughter’s PreSchool Teachers. They’re two very important women who are in her life every weekday and I want to make sure they know just how much they’re appreciated by family, which is why I will choose to include a handwritten note with their Holiday Gift.

Right on trend with the golden colors of the season comes this BIC Mark-It™ in Honey Brown. I took the inspiration for including a handwritten note from the #BICMerryMarking Ideas Booklet [feel free to download it for yourself to get even more ideas for BIC Mark-It™ Markers]. After seeing the golden look of the #HoneyBrown, I knew I had to pair it with these totally fun notecards from the $1 bin at Target and a coordinating Jamberry wrap!

In addition to handwritten notes, the BIC Mark-It™ Permanent Markers make perfect gifts themselves. I am a total sucker for Office Supplies and would be tickled to see such colorful stocking stuffers like these!
​BIC Mark-It™ permanent markers offer vibrant colors that are low odor and acid free. Even better is that you can get the booklet of merry marking and a coupon to start marking fabulous Holiday Gifts and Notes for loved ones this Holiday Season!

Now I nominate all of you to have fun and encourage you to include #BICMerryMarking handmade notes with your gifts this Holiday Season!

This is a sponsored conversation about DIY Craft Kits for Everyone in the Family on behalf of MakersKit. I was provided kits to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own.

Let me just tell you, I love crafts. Love them. But so often I don’t have the time to go out looking for crafts to do and I definitely don’t have the time or energy to go shopping for all the items involved in the crafts I find. Call me lazy – or energy resourceful, but I just don’t. That’s why I love to invest in craft kits and today’s craft kits are going to rock your socks off!

You see – that’s the total idea behind MakersKit. They provide you with a variety of DIY Craft Kits and you have the idea, contents you need, AND instructions to make whatever suits your fancy! I was sent the Lip Balm MakersKit and the Dinosaur Terrarium Mason Jar Kit.

I’ll let you guess which one was for me. Until then, check out the amazing time my oldest daughterhad creating the Dinosaur Terrarium.

You see – I’ve mentioned a couple of times how dino obsessed my oldest daughter is. So much so that in a couple week when we’re celebrating her 4th birthday, we’ll be doing it T-Rex style! So, when I spotted that Dino Terrarium, I knew that’s what she’d love.

On top of being just a fun DIY Craft Kit, this was a great science lesson for her too. We talked about dinosaurs, of course, and she learned all about Terrariums and how they self water. She discovered moss for the first time [how is it that moss hadn’t come up in all her 4 years already?!] and she practiced some hands on planting activities!

To say she loved this DIY Craft Kit, well, it would be an understatement. She checks on her Terrarium everyday, hoping to see some flower sprouts [yes, they included flower seeds for it!] And me? I’m obsessed with Lip Balm, so yes, the Lip Balm MakersKit is all mine!

I love the ease of getting my craft on without having to plan or shop for the crafts and supplies myself. I also love the fact that you can get detailed instructions and even videos for some of the kits, right on the MakersKit website. I also love the little extra bits of info that are snuck into the videos.

The kits are decently priced, especially for what you’re getting. I would have no reservations about ordering again – in fact, I most certainly will be because in both of the kits there was a $10 off coupon code! The Dinosaur Terrarium Kit retails for $18, the Lip Balm Kit retails for $16, and even their most expensive kit is only $32 for a Classic Cocktails Bar Set! You would easily spend that much, or more, when shopping for supplies on your own.

Be sure to connect with the MakersKit staff on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and my favorite instagram. For more MakersKit fun, search the hashtag #MakersKit on social media to see more kits in action too!
